I could handle him as VP. He is with American's on so many issues. Also, he does not pander to the Tea Party nor the overzealous religious folks. He would be a good choice for Romney.

Tim Pawlenty - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mitt Romney needs more of a boots on the ground advantage in Ohio, so I still seem him going with Portman. Not sure if Tim Pawlenty would help Mitt Romney get more female voters because of Pawlenty's stance on abortion.

Portman would also strengthen the Republicans credibility in foreign affairs. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rob_Portman

points well taken. Both would be an improvement over Santorum, Bachmann, Perry and a few more. Both Portman and Pawlenty are far from the extreme right and that is better for the country.

Pawlenty is an Evangelical, was a lousy governor in Minnesota and, to be so trite, is as exciting as paint drying.

Thanks for the info and I will go back to the Reseach Mode on Him.

Just can't see Paws - he contributs nothing to Willard's campaign. Willard will lose MN even with Paws.

Portman is the logical choice - 'cept he was Junior's OMB Director ...... and carries a lot of baggage.

There really isn't anyone else. The base't won't accept Powell or Rice.

check the chris christie facebook page - there a people from all over the country who would like to see him be vp. seems he could puul lots of votes from lots of states for romney. i question why he was sent out of state to campaign out west yesterday instead of be allowed to greet gov romney coming to nj and to attend his two fund raisers. and why are there stories that he has been removed as convention keynote speaker after the big stories announcing it a bit more than a week ago?

That may be so Daleman but on his worse day Pawlenty could run circles around Mark Dayton, In fact he could run circles around Dayton, Franken and Klobuchar combined

Humphrey and Mondale, the last two Minnesota based VP candidates carried their tickets.

And the ability to run in circles is helpful in governing how?

If you run circles around someone you are smarter than them and intellectually quicker. its an idiom look it up under Using English.com

I'll use it in a sentence Mitt Romney on his worse day can run circles around Barack Obama.

Is that anything like - running around in circles?

A better question is why would Paws - or any R - wanna book passage on the SS Rmoney Titanic?

When the R ticket gets destroyed on November 6, Rmoney and his VP will be sent into political oblivion.

I guess they'll be able to get jobs as "special correspondent's" on Faux.
